Ezra Szykier
The epitaph is an acrostic poem spelling the name of the deceased
Ezra son of Aharon [Aaron].
Your heap of earh bring out our tears, we will pour a stream of tears on it, you pulled away from us and only this tombstone will remain, she is mute – and crying.
You escaped from honor and it will chase you, young and old know of your value, a truthful pure-hearted man, these are your real nicknames, you
nurtured many people, your soul will shine for eternity. [the date of death is not written on the stone].
